I guess that the way to go about it would be to use the cloudinit integration. I've not tried it myself, but: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration states that setting the hostname was one of the planned features when the integration was designed.

Setting the host name via cloud-init is currently supported - you can set it via the Add/Edit VM via the "Initial Run" section or try to run-once the VM and look at the same "initial Run" section. Please note that if you do Edit a VM that already run ie already initialized oVirt engine will not send the cloud-init data, you will need to use run-once dialog. What you reported looks like a bug - the VM name should be the hostname and not the template name.

Care to report the bug on bugzilla?

Let me explain better. Once generated the vms, the hostname of the vms are the same of the template, but I wish it was centos-01, centos-02, etc. Is it possible?
